Random Esquire

I’d been feeling unsettled lately because my place was in a bit of disarray.  Too many evenings away from home sometimes leave me feeling like this and I could tell my place needed a thorough scrub down.  I groused about it earlier via instant message to the Ballerina earlier today.  A few hours later, I reported in that I had just cleaned the floor and felt measurably better.  Here’s how the conversation went:

RandomEsq:  “Dude, floors are disgusting.”

The Ballerina: “scrubbing floors periodicially is so soothing.

…it’s like masturbation.”

*Blink*

Last night, I attended an anniversary party for a French restaurant of which I’m rather fond.  The Seattle folks ate there while in town visiting.  The theme of the party?  S&M Burlesque.  The best part?  It was a charity fund raiser for schools.  Let me tell you right now, folks, if all school fundraisers were like this, I’d be broke.  The kitchen poured out food, drinks were available at multiple bars and the eye candy…was plentiful.  Here are some shots of the evening.

Oh yeah…there was food there, too.

Funniest part of the night – in the last picture after the cut, you’ll see a tall, striking blonde woman.  She was approached by a middle aged man who introduced himself and then said, “What’s your name?”  She said, “Gigi.”  His response?

“Where’d you go to college?”

I can’t help it.  I laughed out loud.

More food, drink, and eye candy pictures after the cut. (more…)
